GRAMMAR BLAST Regular Verbs in Past

Es muy fácil saber identificar los verbos regulares en pasado ya que como te das cuenta solo se le
aumenta “ed” al final del verbo.
Ejemplo:
Presente Watch Cook Climb Wait
Pasado Watched Cooked Climed Waited

Sin embargo existe una regla para la pronunciación de la terminación “ed”

1.- Cuando el sonido del verbo termina en: K, P, SH, CH, S, X, se pronuncia………./t/
Ejemplo: Fix en pasado es “fixed” pero pronuncia “fixt”
Jump en pasado es “jumped” pero pronuncia “yompt”
Wash en pasado es “washed” pero pronuncia “washt”

2.- Cuando el sonido final del verbo es: “D” o “T” se pronuncia………. /Id/
Ejemplo: Paint en pasado se escribe “painted” pero se pronuncia “paintId”
Need en pasado se escribe “needed” pero se dice “needId”

3.- La pronunciación para todos los demás verbos regulares es……… /d/
Ejemplo: Love en pasado es “loved” pero se dice “lovd”
Listen en pasado es “listened” pero se dice “lisend”
